We should send flowers to the Richmond medical staff if he ever plays again.

It would be the decent thing.

Biff, have you organised this yet??

My partner is having her 40th on Saturday, we've hired a villa in Tuscany, and have friends flying from everywhere for a James Bond fancy dress party. I think James Bond is going to have a demons scarf on.

 

 

 

Ingen, hope you didnt mind me having a peek at your Twitter, so I have to ask - any relation?

So happy for Jack. A long time coming and so well deserved. As I've said before, this feels like the end of our dark period and Jack mirrors that horror journey so well. 

I just hope this is the end now and we get to enjoy 100 more games from him. 

My first game of 2016 and I'm just beyond excited to cheer him on, even though I think we will get smashed. 

 

Youre back in Oz jaded?  Every post I see of yours seems like youre in a different corner of the globe

I don't know about the rest of you but I've just done this in SC.

Out: Ben Kennedy

In: Jack Trengove

At $156,000 it's freed up some cash and I reckon he'll score well.

I'm gonna wait a couple of weeks but he's a highly likely downgrade :)

Before his injury he was fairly consistent with his scoring, so i reckon he's a great value pick

I've been toTuscany.

Tried to explain to them how to make ham, cheese , wine etc but they insist on using outdated methods.

The bridge in town needs replacing - old and worn.

The Dome was a let down.Not up to state library standards.

Statues of naked men line the streets.under the guise of art.

i saw 50 hunters chasing 3 quail.

They have nice shirts, pink jeans and rugby tops but they are basically Sydney Bankers with accents.

The drugs are really becoming an issue.

I'm back in this corner of the globe, yes.

Didn't miss anything while I was away except footy* and Melbourne coffee.

Happy the club waited for me to give Trenners a game, not happy the AFL decided to schedule a game against the Hawks for this weekend.

 

*debatable- only missed the footy when we were winning

Very sad I can't watch the game today.
My wife bought tickets to Universal Studios Japan so while Jack is coming back, I will most likely be in the grasp of a mechanical pteradactyl. I will watch it when I get home but I am disappointed. I nearly teared up when I saw the footage of the announcement being made on the training track.
All the best for today Trenners and hopefully we can get up for the win.

Completed the drive down from Mildura just to see the man back in the red and blue. Can handle a loss as long as he gets a few kicks and shows some good signs.

 

Congrats Jack, you're a champ in my eyes

Can't wait Cards!!  Late change of plans, car dropped at a mates in case we get up in order to enjoy bulk froths and a possible bender.

Given that he hadn't played for over 2Y, and it was in horrible conditions against a strong team, I thought that he acquitted himself admirably.

19 disposals - can  surely get back into the pace of things over the next few weeks.

Well done Jack and welcome back.

He can only get better from here too.  With the first game back, and the nerves, out of the way hopefully he can settle in and become an important cog in the side during the second half of the year.

He got better as the game went on. His last quarter was great, picked up 9 disposals early in that last qtr when the game was still in the balance. His effort in the marking contest against a much bigger body in Mcevoy, then to follow up and beat a second Hawk at ground level was superb. Winning a two on one through pure determination was great to see and shows the character and grit of Jack. Glad to have him back in the side and think he will be valuable for us.

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol
